    FINAL

    I tried charging it again today with my 67 W charger and it charged fine. I do not know where the problem was, but it could be because of the battery in Quest 3 not being charged with a high watt charger for such a long time. It is fixed for now!

leave it charging as long as you can and update using the meta update tool or factory reset the headset as a recent borkdate has caused many charging issues.

It could be the recent updates, I haven't read the patch yet.

I noticed that when I left the quest to charge with a high watt charger (67W) it drops 1% every 10-ish minutes. But it works with lower adapter chargers like 5W and 15W
